out now: GIGALDI "das ganze doppelalbum" 2LP
"Das ganze Doppelalbum" is the first solo release of Gigi Gratt aka Gigaldi. Since 2005 Gratt plays in intense bands like the improvisation trio Nirwakia with Wolf Lobo Eisberg and Martin 'Hipi' Hiptmair. At the same time he started with Bernhard Breuer (Elektro Guzzi) the band Tumido. But Gratt also created Gigi's Gogos, a 13 piece orchestra built around improvisation conducted by Gigi. This project transferred into the GIS Orchestra, an Upper Austrian improvisation orchestra, with up to 30 musicians (organised in collaboration with Waschaecht Wels (Unlimited Festival). Gratt comes from Ottensheim, he is one of the key pillars of Ottensheim Open Air and organises shows for KOMA, a culture association doing shows at changing spaces. He is playing E-Guitar in the post-math-rock quartet of NI, next to BRAAZ a quartet between Jazz and Noiserock, with a lot of space for improvisation. These days Gratt is also playing at DRUMSKI a collective working in a traditional way with (upper-)austrian proverbs. And if he is not involved in new projects, his next other band is ROMANOVSTRA working in a new way with hungarian proverbs.

In 2015 Gratt transferred the idea of a concept recording having every season one piece, giving each season its own instrument. This was also the time he has chosen GIGALDI as his moniker. In winter 2013 he recorded, like every track on "das ganze Doppelalbum”, "winter" in Ottensheim with E-Bass, a dark, close to 16 minutes song. On “frühling", Gratt uses the flugelhorn, a following composition of TUMIDO's album "vakuum", that was completely recorded using wind instruments. On the 2nd LP, "sommer" was recored in Schrattenberg in 2016, Gratt uses the Tres, a cuban string instrument and “herbst", with E-Guitar, he recorded in a gym hall with an amazing acoustica in Vinac, Bosnia. His Tumido fellow Mario Stadler mixed the album at the Goon Studios / Linz / Austria. Mastering done by legendary Alexander Jöchtl aka Audiobomber. The artwork was done by artist Inga Hehn. The liner notes in the album, are written bei Andreas Fellinger of the Austrian Independent zine "Freistil". Released by Interstellar Records, that collaborated with Gigi for more than 10 Years resulting in the releases of TUMIDO, NI and BULBULTUMIDO.

and, we've already some (the very last one) "interstellar records"-supporter-tote-bags left, really beautiful, with the logo, created by igor hofbauer and redesigned by phil prugger. high quality 2 colour print on a white, high end, fairtrade tote bag. this is a possibility for you to support the label and upcoming releases, alongside getting this totally beautiful item. enjoy, and thank you for backing interstellar.

out now: BUG "calamitas" LP
finally, after some troubles in the vinyl pressing process, "calamitas" from the austrian noiserock quartet BUG is out now. the vinyl version is ready for listening and available via the interstellar mailorder and of course at the bug shows

The night has its price and I am eager to pay.
Calamitas means loss, disaster, damage, harm, defeat and misfortune.

Calamitas deals with danger babe Ruby, who stole Silvio Berlusconi’s heart,
Satan deceiving us all by using the purgatory doctrine,
dictator Kim Jong Senior (II), the sexiest man alive back in the days,
beautiful femmes fatales with a look that kills,
the man who cut off his own leg to get disablement pension (he didn’t succeed),
personal misery, the best days of my life, the abyss that is staring back, etc.

out now: FS MASSAKER "" MC
the first full lenght album of this austrian free trio is out now. members of infamous austrian sound terrorists sex on the beach and regolith are joined by ayleresque saxophone blasts. blending free jazz with analogue synths and high-energy rock into a fiercely turbulent and intensely cathartic improvised wall of sound this trio will blow your head off. imagine a monster truck crashing full speed into a symphonic orchestra playing mozart.

as other announced releases for 2016 / 2017 like LIGHTUNE.G "" LP, CHRISTOF KURZMANN / BURKHARD STANGL "" LP, GIGALDI „die vier jahreszeiten“ 2LP has a delay, there is a reason, as interstellar is co-founded by the SKE fonds, this fonds get money for the copyright for empty medias. one of the big player is amazon, and as dirty business as usal they did one trial to the next trial and delays with paying. but they lost and a lot of non-profit musicians, labels and organizers, finally get this money, which they diserve. all this releases will happens in 2017!

Interstellar's 40th release is out since november 1st, 2016! TUMIDO "xaxim" LP
The austrian trio TUMIDO with Bernhard Breuer (Elektro Guzzi, Metalycée,
Innode) on drums, Gigi Gratt (Gis Orchestra, Ni, Romanovska) on trumpet,
tres and Mario Stadler (Fang den Berg, The Sickerboys) on guitar, bass and electronics released their seventh album "nomads" on Interstellar Records in 2014.
Two years later their new album "xaxim" arrives. "xaxim", being one of the tracks on "nomads", was, for TUMIDO, the ideal track to be remixed.
They invited friends and members of other bands to do remixes of "xaxim" for this album.
On the first track NIK HUMMER (Metalyée, Ex-Thilges3) derives maximum energy from the sounds, as on the second track STEFAN NEMETH (Innode, Ex-Radian) blows your mind with a monotonous loop which, over time, gets to the peak of intensity. On side B of this 180 gr 12inch Vinyl, BUENOVENTURA (Elektro Guzzi) puts TUMIDO on the dancefloor with danceable and inteligent beats and TUMIDO themselves, finish this album with an epic soundscape.
"xaxim" is one of those albums that demand a powerful soundsystem for maximum intensity.
"Lärm erzeugt Energie" ("Noise generates energy") Bernhard Breuer said in an interview once, and he's still right!

The material at hand is the second release in a series of sonic sculptures, these “Quellgeister”, that Stefan Fraunberger has been developing within his extensive travels through Transylvania. Fraunberger seeks out 300 year old organs in abandoned churches and refurbishes them, freeing them of their long-gone service to the institution. The region plays host to a number of small villages which lost the majority of their German population to migration after the fall of communism. In an area currently largely inhabited by Roma and Sinti, these fortress churches built during the Ottoman Wars have been transformed into vacant monuments.

Recording began in the summer of 2014 during a two-week conclave in the village of Valea Viilor (the origin of the town’s name meaning “wormhole”).
Fraunberger understands these time-worn church organs as a pre-modern, forgotten future. Far removed from modern political and industrial norms, these brittle Baroque machines, running on wooden mechanics and bundled air, make room for new concepts of radical and individual sonic possibilities. “Quellgeister” is “sonic archeology” on the fringe of european contemporary culture. Stefan Fraunberger deals with desolate space and the present re-contextualization of it.

Both sides of “Quellgeister #2” are one-take recordings and will contain absolutely no edits. MS microphonics and ambisonoric mastering move this project closer to the abstracted spirit of electronic music within the spectrum of auditive curved space. Atop the hills of the periphery, air and motion form organic sculptures -“Wormhole” feels like a wave consisting of beats and decay. “Quellgeister #2” rides gravitational waves in the heavily diverse nether regions of collapsed planets.

upcoming 15 years of Interstellar Records celebrations:
05/05/16 HR-ZAGREB @ part of "izlog suvremenog zvuzka"
27/05/16 A-INNSBRUCK @ pmk (Nitro Mahalia, Stefan Fraunberger, Bug, DJ Ego, Dr. One)
and in autumn we will celebrating in Rhiz / Vienna, Ljubljana, KAPU / Linz and once again in Graz. In 2016 we will also release a new 12inch of Tumido featuring a lot of guest contribution and in the end of the year there will be a lot of snow.

Interstellar's 38th release is out now! It's the self-titled debut of OWL RAVE and will be available on vinyl.
OWL RAVE is a new band from Innsbruck, originated as Gregor Huber's (formerly of Todesstern) bedroom project in 2014. It was originally intended to calm him down and take some much needed wind out of his sails. Twin Peaks, David Lynch and Badalamenti were essential in conjuring up these types of atmospheres and moods. Slowness gradually became the momentum: Doom jazz, early dubstep, drone and ambient made their way into his musical socialization that up until then was moulded by HC, metal and drum'n'bass.
The nucleus of OWL RAVE's work is dark, simplified, reduced and melancholic deepness. Former Todesstern colleagues Markus Dolp (vocalist of Bug) and Antonia Steiner (former vocalist of The Shirley MacLaines) fleshed the project out to a three-piece. With those additions, Owl Rave gained a valuable new layer and was able to inject versatility into its narrative structure.OWL RAVE is a multimedia project: visuals, videos and coherent artwork are stylistic devices that are used with the same level of sincerity as the music is performed. Anna Ladinig frames all those elements with her visuals, which draw from both digital and analogue source material. At the end of the day, Owl Rave is a concept band that helps itself to pieces of pop culture scenery, strives to be convincing and is not afraid of quotes.
Were quite sure that this is the beginning of a long journey together.

in 2016 we will celebrate our 15th birthday. We launched this label back in 2001, starting with a compilation that featured noise-rock and experimental musicians. We immediately felt the enthusiasm. in these15 years we have managed to keep our spirit and continue to trust our vision. we released 40 records, with the best artists and people you can dream of (see the list below), cooperated with amazing labels like Rock Is Hell, Noise Appeal, Hirntrust Grind Media, Guranje S Litice and Conspiracy Records, organized dozens of concerts, started a sub label (Dilemma Records) and worked with amazing mastering engineers, concert organisers, clubs, graphic designers, record stores, webmasters, translators and more. we are so proud to constantly be surrounded by people who really support us and we are especially grateful for our dedicated fan base who always support us and respond to our work.
without all this, we wouldn't exist anymore, and now is a better time than any to say thank you.

so from bottom of our hearts: thank you. we're looking forward to the future and we're sure it will be as fruitful as the 15 years we have put behind us so far. out next releases will be out in spring, starting with Stefan Fraunberger, who is writing the next chapter to his "quellgeister" series and a new recording with Tumido. both releases are extraordinary!

We would also like to thank all our fans, friends and family in person. The best opportunity to do that would be at the"15 Jahre Interstellar Records" show. It will take place on january 23rd, 2016 in graz @ forum stadtpark. this is the first part of this celebration, more events will follow in 2016 and they'll be spread out over Zagreb, Vienna, Ljubljana, Innsbruck and of course in our old stoping grounds of Linz.

there are a lot of news, and damn good news at that.

finally, the 37th interstellar release is out (official on february 9th, 2015). Angélica Castelló "sonic blue" Vinyl.
in 2013, on the Lofoten archipelago, an island chain along Norway’s northern coastline, Angelica met the biologist and bioacoustics researcher Heike Vester, who founded the organization Ocean Sounds in a fishing village named Henningsvær. Heike led Angelica to the whales found in the waters around the Lofoten islands. The field recordings and sounds they collected on these boat trips provide the acoustic framework for “sonic blue”, which is a beautiful but also dark and noisy composition that is best described with one simple word: MAGIC. never before was there such a unique communication between the field recordings, the variety of sounds provided by the open ocean and the human musician. The LP includes liner notes by Susanna Niedermayr / Ö1 and of course a link to the digital version. The coherent artwork was done by Ralf Tronstoner.
record release party on february 9th 2015 in A-VIENNA @ hut hinterhof unterterrain (sechshauserstr. 28)

this Ralf Tronstoner is also a part of NITRO MAHALIA and has a new project with Bernhard Breuer (Tumido, Metalycée, Elektro Guzzi), called GNANKN. Their first live performance was at the 15 Years of Klingt.Org Fest in Vienna, and you can imagine how it sounds. Or can you?

OWL RAVE from Innsbruck / Austria will release their debut on Interstellar Records in summer (realistically). This band also includes interstellar alumni as we have mr. maggo bug (bug / todesstern) next to gregor huber (dj ego / todesstern) and antonia steiner. we're highly impressed with the atmosphere of their sounds. you can listen to the beauty of darkness here ->owlrave.bandcamp.com

REGOLITH will release another split tape very soon, this time with SΔGΔΔN from spain. it's the second part of their split tape series and they are also working on their new full length album which will released by Rock Is Hell in autumn 2015.

and we also have really bad news: PEACH PIT split up, this band was so very special. the members, the music and interstellar are proud of the 4 releases we did together which are still magic! on the other hand this event brings us a new band: FRANZ KAFKA ENSEMBLE feat. Franjo and Bruno - there is a lot of PP in it but also more space for improvisation as well as a brass section. their debut concert in autumn 2014 was really impressive and we were tremendously excited to see them! Mihael is currently focusing all his energy into his band TANKER, which is still the loudest and heaviest math-rock band on the planet earth.tankerzg.bandcamp.com/

we're expecting a fresh batch of new and amazing records for our mailorder, like the debut of THE GITARREN DER LIEBE (feat. members of The Striggles, Jakuzi's Attempt), new albums of Wolfram Reiter's outstanding new project BLACK MUD RIVER - so keep your ears open for all these new and magical sounds.

our long time friends, graz based HELLA COMET, just released “ttmmm” on our label (INT035).
after being invited to Lou Reed" night in graz / austria they have put a spin
to their existing sound playing a set of blistering guitar feedback based on Lou Reeds'
Metal Machine Music. no drums, just a intense wall of wonderful feedback and guitar modulations.
some days later, after listening to the recording along with hella comet,
we came up with the perfect plan to release the recording as
fast as possible on an analog medium.
two months after that we are happy to announce this release.
28 minutes of tape - the perfect format for this wall of sound.

be prepared for 2 more releases in the upcoming 2 months, as there will be
METALYCÈE "expat blues” (end of april) and TUMIDO "nomads" (may 2014).

released their new album "thanatopraxis" on CD - some of you might remember
their awesome show at the interstellar label night at kapu in linz in spring
this year. well. that was actually the exact same night we decided to do a

piece of eye and ear candy: INT033. be prepared!

soundtracks by our beloved PEACH PIT from zagreb. recorded in the years

that, but it's, like, super limited: 70 copies total.

INT031 TUMIDO "vakuum" LP
TUMIDO grew (up?) and now come as a three piece, with 2013 being busy

in the next couple of weeks, TUMIDO will further prepare for a new album

and, as a reminder: still fresh:

INT032 V/A "innere blutungen - soundtrack" LP / CD
is a documentary by Anatol Bogendorfer (Valina) and Florian Sedmak
(Kurort), which premiered at this year's Crossing Europe Film Festival
in Linz. "Innere Blutungen" is a well-balanced musical trip from the
origins (as interpreted outside of any cliche by Martin Neureiter,
Gosinger Geignmusi and Ischler Seitlpfeifer) to the abstract and
delicate electronic soundscapes by Andreas Kurz - with a short stop at
the middle grounds: a polyphonic "Jodler" for guitar by Florian Sedmak.

on some other note, we've a couple of great new mailorder stuff been
coming in: THE EX & BRASS UNBOUND LP, and a couple of new releases from
UNRECORDS and GOD RECORDS. aaand. we have some copies of the 50th

→ INT031 TUMIDO "vakuum"

further, INTERSTELLAR records will be part of "Maja's Musik Markt" at Brut in Vienna on the weekend of April 26th to 28th, 2013.
"Maja's Musik Markt" is a market (or should we call it "DIY fair"?) with almost all independent labels from Austria (at least it looks like it) and each label
will have its own table (or "standl" as we call it in austria) and we will share ours with our friends of ROCK IS HELL and NOISE APPEAL Records. same time, same place, and actually a kind of fusion with the market is the "Viennese Soulfood Festival", with lots of bands from the INTERSTELLAR universe and beyond:
REGOLITH, MATIJA SCHELLANDER (of METALYCEE), FIRST FATAL KISS, BULBUL, ..... see you there!

unfortunately, this time we don't only have good news for you but also kinda bad ones.... our sublabel DILEMMA records will be on indefinite hiatus for personal reasons (let's hope it's a "break" rather then the end of it).
it's back catalog is still available, exclusively via the INTERSTELLAR mailorder.
no idea if DILEMMA will get going again some time soon, but we'll keep you updated!

november is almost the end of the year - that is, high time for the following two releases to be out as of (almost) now (see release dates below):

november 9th: int029 PEACH PIT "suspicious cargo", a first-time-on-vinyl and vinyl-only rerelease, originally released on Earwing Records in 1999.

But remaining still REFLECTOR. sounds good? yes.

As of other news, METALYCEE is still working on their new album, which is due to come some time next year. All of the METALYCEE guys and gal are further busy with various other projects and bands: Bernhard Breuer is touring and recording and releasing good stuff with TUMIDO and ELEKTRO GUZZI, Melita Jurisic has been casted for a role in "Mad Max - Fury Road" and is still filming in Namibia and Nik Hummer finished the short movie "Trespass" with Paul Wenninger, which is currently shown at the Viennale.

March 8th and 9th 2012 we'll be at TRESK festival at Kino Siska in Lublijana.
TRESK festival is organized by Radio Student and we'll share tables and drinks
with friends (Eat This Production, Moonlee Records) and a whole bunch of other
great lables.www.radiostudent.si/tresk

We have two new releases up our sleeves, both scheduled for sometime in
April/May 2012. First is "foxtrott", the second album by NI (a side project of
TUMIDO's Gigi). Second is a new album by REFLECTOR, still yet unnamed but under
the working title of "heritage" and once again in cooperation with our friends
from Noise Appeal and Rock is Hell.

Good news for everyone of you who missed out the last time: due to high demand,
we'll be reprinting our sexy T-shirts! Probably available around April, thanks
to our buddies at Siebdruckeria.www.siebdruckeria.at

REGOLITH are currently getting ready for their tour in April, where they'll
bring along a bunch of extremely limited copies of their vinyl. If by any chance
not all of them get sold on tour, you'll be able to get your copy at our mailorder.
Btw. our mailorder keeps growing these past weeks, and we now also distribute
GOD RECORDS - the label outlet of Slobodan Kajkut (THE STRIGGLES, AUTOMASSAGE).

BUG are going to tour the US with KEELHAUL from the states - hell, would we love
to come along!

FINAL TRANSMISSION, our interstellar radio show, will celebrate its 150th issue
in march at Radio FRO - tune in!

Finally, the upcoming release of the space recordings of the "mur.sat1" nano
satellite is going to happen sometime this year. The satellite will probably be
cruising the orbit starting this summer.sat.mur.at

attention all mailorder customers from the states: before ordering more than one record please contact us because of this:
due to new anti-terror laws that came into effect december 15th, all packages destined for the USA from Austria that weigh more than 499g have to be sent with EMS and not with regular post. cost of EMS is very high (at least 5 times higher as with regular post), this only temporary... we hope.
AND new arrivials in our mailorder section, very fine vinyl beauties from artists and labels like ?ALOS, ZEUS!, OCRILIM, LES SINGE BLANC and BARLAMUERTE and ROCK IS HELL.
